Eldritch Battery only converts flat energy from gear
|
I dont know if this is a bug or intended behavior, but the node only converts the flat energy shield that is on gear, not even unique modifiers like the mod on "Ghostwrithe" 50% of maximum life converted to energy shield works.
Neither does % energy shield nodes in the passive skill tree. Is this intended behavior on both issues? "I'm afraid if I stop drinking the cumulative hangover will kill me" ~ Sterling Archer IGN: Angryweasel / PopTheWeasel Last bumped on Jan 9, 2025, 7:44:54 AM

Regarding the second issue, it is definitely intended. Quoting the ingame tooltip for the keyword "Converts":
" Not informed enough to answer the first issue tho |

I don't get the energy shield at all from the 50% converted. I should still get that but not be able to scale that part if I read your quote correctly?

" I do not know about the Ghostwrite mod as it sounds to me as this should work. But for the general conversion it seems to be intended. It is confirmed at least for the damage conversion that the old tags arent relevant anymore when completely converted. So i assume it is the same with ES etc. www.twitch.tv/marloss_live

" So it still gives you the ES so it should scale with %es on the tree according to "Converting stat A to stat B applies the base value of stat A to stat B instead. The converted stat scales with percentage modifiers to stat B, but not with percentage modifiers to stat A." that means %es should still apply but it isn't. but I too expect the flat es I get from Ghostwrithe to be converted to mana seeing as the wording on Eldritch battery states nothing about it only being from gear. And even then Ghostwrithe gear as well. |

" Yeah somethinkg funky is going on, I assume its a bug that you dont get mana from the 50% life convert on ghostwrithe as I dont see why it shouldnt work. "I'm afraid if I stop drinking the cumulative hangover will kill me" ~ Sterling Archer

This definitely seems like it should work going by the wording on the node and item. Can we get someone to weigh in on this if this is an intended interaction or not?

Not a bug. If you view the Eldritch Battery node in the passive skill tree and hover over the word "convert" it clearly states that the conversion only applies to your base ES. It means that it converts ALL of your base ES. That doesn't stop items from converting life to energy shield after the fact, which is what happens in this case.
So order of operations as intended is: 1. Base ES is converted to mana by Eldritch Battery 2. Ghostwrithe or Atziri's Disdain convert life to ES 3. Everlasting Gaze adds ES based on base mana 4. Percentage increases from skill nodes are then applied to both ES and mana These are intended interactions which many people have mistakenly interpreted as a bug because they haven't read the "convert" tooltip on the Eldritch Battery node. |

"Did you really think it was a good idea to bump dozens of month-old false bug reports. You just made finding actual bugs and addressing more recent reports more difficult. Last edited by MonaHuna#6449 on Jan 10, 2025, 8:12:25 AM
